We measured skin conductance response (SCR) to escalating levels of a direct social threat from a novel, ecologically-relevant experimental paradigm, the Intruder Threat Task. We simultaneously evaluated the contribution of social symptom severity and behavioral movement. Children with AS group showed less psychophysiological reactivity to social threat than controls across all three phases of the experiment. In the AS group, greater social impairment was significantly associated with reduced SCR. However, movement activity predicted SCR while diagnosis did not. Research and treatment need to account for the complex interplay of emotional reactivity and social behavior in AS. Psychophysiology studies of AS should consider the impact of possible confounds such as movement.

Negotiating social dynamics among allies and enemies is a complex problem that often requires individuals to tailor their behavioral approach to a specific situation based on environmental and/or social factors. One way to make these contextual adjustments is by arranging behavioral output into intentional patterns. Yet, few studies explore how behavioral patterns vary across a wide range of contexts, or how allies might interlace their behavior to produce a coordinated response.

Article Synopsis
  • The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of interconnected devices that communicate and share data, raising security concerns that require advanced protection methods like deep learning Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS).
  • Traditional deep learning IDS often struggle with accurate attack classification and long computational times, prompting the development of a new approach using the Self-Attention Progressive Generative Adversarial Network (SAPGAN) to enhance security in IoT networks.
  • The proposed framework involves data gathering, pre-processing to handle missing values, feature selection through a modified War Strategy Optimization Algorithm, and categorizing intruders as either Anomaly or Normal, demonstrating improved accuracy and efficiency over standard models.

In public spaces, threats to societal security are a major concern, and emerging technologies offer potential countermeasures. The proposed intelligent person identification system monitors and identifies individuals in public spaces using gait, face, and iris recognition. The system employs a multimodal approach for secure identification and utilises deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) that have been pretrained to predict individuals.
